Lime Margarita with Bitters

 I only had one blood orange to celebrate National Margarita Day so needed to make a lime one for Kevin --really liked the addition of the bitters!


  • 1 1/2 ounces (45ml) Resposada or Anejo Tequila
  • 1 1/2 ounces (45ml) fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 ounce (30ml) Simple Syrup
  • 3 dashes Orange Bitters
  • kosher salt or sea salt for the rim

  • Rub the rim of an old fashioned glass (or whatever glass you prefer) with an edge of a lime slice.  Swirl the rim through a small pile of kosher or sea salt to salt the rim. Add one or two large cubes into the glass.
  • Combine tequila, lime juice, simple syrup, and bitters in an ice filled shaker.
  • Shake vigorously for 15 seconds, then strain into the salted glass. Serve or drink immediately and with leisure.
